Then:For Randy

I just started bangin' on my guitar and a song popped out. I decided to write is down and managed to find some paper and a pencil. I didn't know how to record anything at this time, so I played it enough to "lock it in". The song is "Old School" and was about being cool driving a car that was not all shiny and a "trailer queen". My friend Randy, who was oddly enough a younger member of the car club, told me about the style and encouraged me to do my cars in "Old School'. I wrote this song based on his comments. We later lost Randy in a tragedy and the song is now a memorial to him, his friendship and spirit.
